Archaeology

Archaeology is the scientific study of human history and prehistory through the excavation and analysis of artifacts, structures, and other physical remains. It aims to understand past human behavior, cultures, and societies by examining material evidence left behind, such as tools, pottery, bones, and ancient architectural remains. Archaeologists use various techniques, including surveying, excavation, and laboratory analysis, to interpret these findings and reconstruct historical narratives. The discipline combines elements of history, anthropology, and geology, and it often involves interdisciplinary approaches to gain a comprehensive understanding of the archaeological record.
